This glove stays true to the features that have made CCM trappers a favorite among goalies worldwide, with upgraded features exclusive to Source for Sports.
Source Exclusive Upgrades & Modifications
The Source for Sports Exclusive version of the CCM A1.9 goalie catcher feature two changes to the trapper from the catalog model. The Source Exclusive A1.9 is a Single-Tee pocket with Skate Lace lacing, which is different from the double-tee with standard lacing catalog version. The Axis 1.9 Source Exclusive Goalie Glove has also been upgraded with D30 Palm Protection, which is not featured in the catalog version at all. You also get access to custom colors that are exclusive to Source for Sports.
External Material
CCM uses Speed Skin material on the AXIS A1.9, currently one of the lightest skins used in the goalie world. CCM is taking a “don’t fix what isn’t broken” approach when it comes to the skin on their gear.
Break Angle
The first thing you’ll notice about the AXIS A1.9 is not only that it’s more comfortable, but also that it is truly game ready. The break angle is the same as past CCM trappers, but by no means is the glove the same. The raised-foam finger padding on the backhand provides further flexibility making sure that while fully protected, you will still be able to make glove saves all day long.
Pocket Design
CCM’s AXIS A1.9 Source Exclusive trapper features a Single-Tee pocket design, which is different from the A1.9 catalog version which is a double-tee. You also get Skate Lace lacing in the pocket, which is not in the catalog model.
Strapping
The strapping on the CCM AXIS A1.9 stays familiar with previous CCM trappers. The quick-release webbing strap allows for easy and secure adjustments ensuring the perfect fit.
Cuff Design
The cuff on the AXIS A1.9 allows the goalie their full wrist mobility without any restrictions. A one piece cuff and thumb design lets the goalie present their glove the way they want to hold it while providing maximum coverage.
Colors
CCM’s AXIS A1.9 Source for Sports Catcher comes in some standard catalog colors, as well as some exclusive custom colorways. Colors offered are; All Black, All White, White/White/Black/Black, Chicago Blackhawks, Detroit Red Wings, Toronto Maple Leafs, and Vegas Golden Knights.

Goalie Catcher Sizing
More times than not, the fit of your Goalie Catcher is often overlooked. This is likely the result of the limited size availability compared to other pieces of equipment, however a properly sized Catcher provides you the protection and stick control you trust.
Which Catcher Size is for you?
The first step to finding the correct Catcher size is to utilize the “heel-of-palm-to-tip-of-middle-finger” measurement. This measurement will generally send you to the appropriate size you need.
Analyzing the Catcher Fit
It is important to make sure the palm lines up properly within the catching glove, so that it can be closed without excessive force. New goalie gloves will be difficult to close initially, but through either a standard break-in process, or "baking" the catcher with our in-house convection skate ovens, they will soften over time.
*We do not recommend using any conventional in-home ovens, as the results have been very unpredictable in the past and could damage your Catcher.*
Next you want to ensure the adjustable wrist strap goes directly across the wrist bone, and has minimal to no interference with your chest protector. The goaltender should be able to swivel their wrist to accommodate a range of save selections without any restrictions from the chest protector.
Sizing for Growing Goaltenders
For growing goaltenders we recommend following the guidelines set above, rather than sizing up to accommodate growth. Oversized goalie gloves restrict control, especially for young developing goalies. As you climb the size ladder for Catchers, typically the glove requires more strength for pocket closure.
Which Hand Do I Need?
Figuring out which hand you need for your Catcher can be slightly confusing. Goalies generally refer to themselves as "REGULAR" or "FULL RIGHT". Below is the easiest way to simplify which hand you need.

- Regular - Catcher worn on your Left Hand
- Full Right - Catcher worn on your Right Hand
